Synopsis
What kind of things are women laughing about these days? Who are they poking fun at? Fifty years after women started speaking up – from the subversive 1960s to the first one-woman shows – the number of working female comedians is booming. Who are these ladies who make us laugh about their entanglements and self-image battles? This uplifting documentary shows that the growing ranks of women stepping onto the comic stage has been closely intertwined with the drive to liberate women as a whole since the latter half of the 20th century.
